Master Achaan Chah
was given a fine piece of land so that he might build a monastery. Chah had to
go away for a time and left his disciples in charge of the building work.
When he returned –
five months later – nothing had been done. The disciples had already ordered
several plans from local architects.
One of them asked
Chah:
– Which of the
projects should we go ahead with? How should we go about taking the right
decision?
Chah answered:
– When one desires
that which is good, the results are always good.
Free of the fear to
make mistakes, the decision was taken and the result was magnificent.
Face your path with
courage, do not be afraid of other people’s criticism. And – above all – don’t
allow yourself to be paralyzed by
self-criticism.
God is the God of the
brave.
